Hi, if virtual is allowed for your work experience, I would recommend it as it is very beneficial.

Springpod has many computer science virtual work experiences from top tech companies and universities which you can complete in your own time (I would say it takes a few days to complete, so maybe you can do two in a week).

I would also recommend the idEA award for computer science, bronze will take a few days and silver will take a week to complete. You can register for it on your own

If your work experience has to be in person, I would contact any tech companies in your local area (be that large tech companies or mobile phone/tech repair stores), explain that you are looking for work experience.
